This fine two-reel film depends not so much upon actual warfare and bloodshed for its strength as upon its freshly interesting plot. The opening scenes, in which the young sergeant rides on the back of the coach with the girl to town, his interference in the fight between drunken soldiers, and his marriage to the girl before the justice of peace, are worked out naturally. Then follows the father's displeasure and the rival's scheme to have the hero sent into a hostile Indian country, to almost certain death. The girl, hearing of this, saves him. The part of Ruth is admirably taken. The later scenes are in keeping with the first, making altogether an offering above the average of merit. - The Moving Picture World, January 11, 1913
